Yellow jacket from Netflix’ Dark

unkategorisch

After having watched 2 Seasons and 1 Episode it might be that Dark is the best Netflix series I’ve watched.

The yellow jacket being worn by the “Jonas Kahnwald” is great. Trying to buy it the Internet has lots of lures out. It seems that one can buy it everywhere. On closer inspection sadly the resemblance ends with the color. Non of them are the real deal, 90% are not even close. Via reddit I found this from – sadly – 2 years ago:

Seems that two years is ample time for scammers to drum up lots of really fake offerings and SEO the living shit out of it. Most of the jackets are yellow, and thats that.

It would be awesome if the genuine jacket design produced in good quality. Anette Guther did such a fantastic job on the series overall. It would only be fair if Netflix puts a bit of a budget into a small production run of the jacket. Back in my day this kind of thing would have at least produced in a small series for cast and crew. But that was Hollywood. Netflix makes better content (sometimes) but the fringes and perks might be ‘streamlined’ here are there. For all what I know it could even have happened, and I am just unaware.

Since the design is so emblematic one doesn’t even need to stitch in a logo. Netflix would benefit from it as much as the people buying it: They would buy what they want, instead of getting ripped of by some Internet profiteers.

In the meantime, if you have not watched Dark yet: Congratulations. You have a couple of interesting hours ahead of you.
